REGISTRATION PLANS FOR NEW DRAFT ARE SET

2,000,000 Expected to Qualify for Military Service When Age Limit is Extended. WASHINGTON, Aug. 16. Provost Marshal Gen. Crowder announced today that plans already have been made for registering the 13.000,000 additional men which he estimates -will be brought under the selective service law when congress enacts the pending bill extending the age limits to Include men between 18 and 45 years. From this number approximately 2,000,000 qualified for full military service are expected to bo secured. So urgent Is the need for additional man power. Gen. Crowder said, that the draft machinery is being put into shape for the great task ahead without waiting for final action by congress. Men of the new draft will be needed by Oct. 1 and in order to get them registration day will have to be held not later than Sept. 15 and if possible Sep. 5 will be fixed as the day. When the 13,000,000 men are enrolled, nearly 25,000,000 will have been registered since the United States entered the war. There were some 10,000,000 enrolled on the first registration day, June 5, 1917, another 600,000 last June 5, and several hundred thousand more are expected to be enrolled Aug. 24. "State headquarters, local boards and other officials in the various states' he said, "have been advised to hold themselves in readiness to proceed promptly with their work a3 soon as congress has acted and the president, by proclamation, has fixed the date of registration. "Until the legislation is actually

passed it cannot be stated with exactness of course what the new age limits will bo. But, because of the urgent necessity of the situation it is essential that as much of the preparatory work as possible be done at this time In order that the administration may promptly avail itself of the law. To that end, now, as in the past the utmost reliance is placed on the American people to supply the necessary cooperation and team work. "The situation is urgent because by Oct. 1, class 1, under the age limits of the original act, will have been entirely exhausted. Unless there is to he a very serious interruption in the flow of American troops to the camps and thence across the seas to France, Class 1 must be replenished at the earliest possible moment by available men both below and above the present age limits of 21 to 31. There is, literally, no time to be lost."

The German airplane shown above was shot down oy the French in the Oise section. The crosses on it have replaced the iron cross design. The new crosses resemble, from a distance both the Red Cross insipnia and the emblem of Switzerland. Germany has replied to Switzerland's complaint

that the iron cross resembled the British circle with a bull's eye too much. The lower picture shows a

captured German field piece which the French soldier would like to take home for a souvenir.

ery woman in Wayne county from nineteen to thirty-five is urged to attend some Sunday school, Sunday, August 18, and hear of the great need for nurses, and the opportunity for patriotic service offered the wimen of our country.

Davison, chairman American Red Cross; and Dr. Frank Martin, chairman of the medical boad, council of national defense. The appeal follows: "Across the sea, from France, with every closing day of the heroic struggle of our fighting men, there comes a more imperative call to the women of America to assume their full share of responsibility in winning this world war for the right of men, women and nations to live their own lives and determine their own fortunes. "There exists now an extreme need for at least 25,000 women of character, Intelligence, and education to fill the gaps in our hospital staffs caused by skilled nurses to the fighting front.

"There is only one way to fill these

gaps: By keeping our hospital training schools supplied with students, who are not only preparing for service abroad and al home at the end of their course and at the same time are equipping themselves to earn their living in one of the noblest of professions, but from the very outset of their course are serving their country as well aS learning.

"DOWN ON YOUR KNEES" MODERN GERMAN SPIRIT

ax Harden Denounces Prusy i i yiCl r:Lf

Man wai bums rruu i Over Russian Thrones. j -i.-i.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16 Another violent attack on Prussian policy, with a warning of the storm brewing in Russia and a frank tribute to British

and American soldiers fighting for

their ideals, has just been published In the Zukunft by Maximilian Harden, the free-spoken German editor. An official dispatch from France today quotes extracts from the article, commenting particularly upon the action of the German censors in permitting it to appear. "At the moment when the fire of Slavic hatred coming from the four corners of Russia is developing into one single immense flame," Harden asked, "how can our rulers think of finding supporters for thrones and supplying candidates for them? Are our rulers desirous of supporting - the plans of the adversary and uniting in one single fire all the sparkling flames which are burning or smouldering be

tween Vladivostok . and Sabastopol; between Murmansk and Fiume?" Harden declared the soul of modern Germany is dominated by the Idea of bondage, is summed up in "down on your knees." He attacked the Prussian house of lords, and especially Prince Salm-Horstmar, who said, like his emperor, that the present war was nothing but the conflict between the American conception of the world and the Germanic one. "You think that the British and Americans are such as the conservative papers represent them," he wrote. "They have proved themselves to be very different on the Yser, at Arras and at Dormans. They have shed the best of their blood, sent hundreds of

l thousands without dreams of conquest j simply for their ideals. Does this in l any way correspond to the picture

that you have drawn of them?"
